Coming here as a long-time Homestuck Discord regular, you know exactly why.

I want to just reply to the original post, here's a list of Homestuck Spaces I can think of:

Reddit:

-r/Homestuck (owned by Makin)

-r/althomestuck (seems to be affiliated with Makin)

-r/EnglishPumpkinParty (unaffiliated with Makin, way more problematic than HSD ever hopes to be)

-The Homestuck Porn subreddit I can't name, it also has a Discord server, both unaffiliated

Discord:

-Homestuck Discord (owned by Makin)

-MSPFA Discord (unaffiliated)

-Psycholonials Official (unaffiliated)

-Many random servers you can find by searching Homestuck (unaffiliated)

Forums:

-Fruity Rumpus Asshole Factory Forums (unaffiliated)

-Homestuck.xyz (dead but unaffiliated)

Social media:

-Twitter (owned by Elon Musk, Makin has an account named "homestucknet" on it, he does not control Twitter though)

-Bluesky (unaffiliated)

-Mastodon (unaffiliated)

-Tiktok (unaffiliated)

-VK and Telegram (several decently active communities, all unaffiliated)

-4chan (doesn't allow Homestuck anymore but unaffiliated)

-Pesterchum (unaffiliated)

-MxRP (dead but unaffiliated)

-Amino (unaffiliated)

-Kiwifarms (unaffiliated)

-Youtube (unaffiliated)

-Facebook (unaffiliated)

-Instagram (unaffiliated)

The idea that Makin controls the Homestuck community is absurd, the only place he actually is in charge of is the r/Homestuck subreddit and weakly the Homestuck Discord, where his role is choosing moderators, making news posts and being a figurehead. Half the time that he actually tries to directly do anything about the server, such as making actual moderation decisions, the server revolts against him and splits in half. And in the case that a moderator that he chose is hated by the server's members, they are ripped apart, their actions are reverted and they are forced to vow to never moderate again. And I believe that is good. I hate Makin and don't want him to be in control.

Regarding transphobia, I can't really pitch in on that because I don't believe it's a productive topic since no one here seems to care when any actual trans person criticizes Hussie, only when Makin does.
